Yeah, Alec was soon to be hired.
Hogwarts an adventure? With a LOUD scoff, the girl commented, "Talk about understatement." Not that she was mocking the little boy, but she had to show her sarcasm. "It is a big adventure, my lad." Talking like aunt Brown was totally uncalled for. "I'm sure you'll love. You'll make new friends easily too. I can help you to your classes if you-" HALT! Did she just offer him her help? That was one of the moments Louisa doubted her mind working at its full function. "I mean if you want to." Trying to sound nonchalant about the whole help offer.
What was it that all people asked about her summer? It was like they knew how intense it was. Shrugging, again, she looked out at the people moving their trunks around, "It was all right. Went to Brazil and Florida with friends." Looking back at the boy, she asked back, "You?" Seriously what would a kid do in summer? Run around the house billion times a day hyper from all the sugar? Probably.
Aaand here came the main reason she didn't like younger peeps. QUESTIONS. Ahem. Anyway, Louisa's face fell slightly at his question and she looked away, "Mom isn't a witch. She can't get through the wall." And dad is a jerk wizard so.. Hopefully the boy would drop the topic now?
Claudia couldn't help but eavesdrop when she heard the older girl describe the place she was going to be spending this year. It really sounded interesting just like Lyssie had described. She just wished she could go up to the girl and ask whether she could tag along too.
SPOILER!!: Alec

"I can't wait to explore it!" he said, grinning up at the girl, "If it's as good as it sounds, i'm sure i'll love it as well." As for the whole making friends thing... he had met Adeline and Asher and now, Louisa... but none of them would be as close as Anya was. But before Alec could go off on his train of thought, Louisa said something that seemed to lighten his mood. "Really? You'd help me?" he repeated, "I'd like that!" That is, if Louisa didn't mind an eleven year old tagging along and bugging her about this that and the other.
Alec blinked, impressed with the girl's summer. "That must have been a really fun summer!" Especially seeing as she went with her friends. "Mine was pretty... normal," he started, "Apart from the visit from this weird man from the Ministry. That wasn't normal at all." Coming home to find a weird man telling you that you're magical is the kind of thing pranks were made of.
"Oh!" Alec said, feeling slightly uncomfortable for Louisa and a bit for himself. So magical people can't get through the wall. That was something new. "What if they're with someone who's magical? Then can they get through the wall?" he asked, blinking at Louisa. She was smart, she should know, shouldn't she?
Claudia wondered about that too. She never did before because everyone in her family were either full blood or mixed blood magical. She sighed. She did miss her family a lot. She wondered whether she'd ever fit in into this new school. It sure looked like the younger boy was doing a lot better than her in making friends. Claudia smiled whimsically and then decided that had to step up and introduce herself or she'd definitely be without friends if she waited for others to do the same.
So she walked up to the older girl and the younger boy and said, "
Hi there I'm really sorry for interrupting but I happened to hear you talking about showing him around the school. I'm a third year but this is the first time I'm going to Hogwarts. Would it be okay if I tagged along too when you show him around later?" Claudia asked the older girl.
